Error! Port 30892 does not appear to be open.

[GlennCoco]

OK, so I know I am not the only one with this problem, I've read about other people having the same problem, but I could not follow what was going on in the threads to figure out what I needed to do.

I have:

Windows XP Media Center Edition

Qwest DSL with the Actiontec 701 GT701 modem

Belkin F5D7230-4 wireless router

I think I followed the directions correctly for port forwarding at http://www.portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Belkin/F5D7230-4/Utorrent.htm

Right now I am downloading something at 9.8 kB/s, which doesn't seem right.

Can somebody help me?

Hi, Your Problem is that you have 2 Routers. Please Read this Guide on that issue:

OK, I followed the instructions to set the Belkin as an access point only, but now I am not getting any internet at all on my wired computer. However, I do still have wireless access on this computer.

I would look over that Guide again I found this Snippet:

[mod/admin edit] In order to do this you must have the other router with wireless. If both routers don't have wireless, you can not do this.

[GlennCoco]

Oh boy, you are right probably. Now I am really getting confused about what to do.

You can turn the 2nd router into a WAP here is the Guide Please Read carefully:

Or you can set the Modem into Bridged Mode but you may have to contact your ISP to do that.

If he has his login data he should be able to bridge it himself if the Belkin supports PPPoE (if the modem is using PPPoA). Setting the Belkin to bridge mode if it has one should work as well. My guide details this situation fairly well.
